I’m quite the sucker for plaid button downs. It has a nostalgic grunge appeal that I always associate with rock bands and music festivals. Since I was attending a rock fest, my fashion weapon of choice had to be a plaid button down…but worn differently. Instead of having it envelope my hips (yet again), I toyed with the idea of converting my plaid button down shirt into a skirt (ever the experimental fashionista that I am). And to shake things up further, I went with a BDOBD (button-down-on-button-down) configuration (both from Lee, by the way), paired with mesh boots ala Margiela.

If you knew me well, you should’ve been able to deduce that I handpicked these two button downs from the men’s section, just because I like my shirts big and loose. I am actually quite in love with the grey button down — it makes me feel masculine and sexy at the same time.
